IE is already a security hazard for users. IE doesn't support any of the content security policies implemented in other modern browsers, which makes its a target for every possible XSS scheme and what not.

If your users use IE you are putting them at greater risk than any other browser users and the former should be actively discouraged to do so.

Even IE6, that's no security problems on a well-made & trusted website. And a website doesn't support IE6 can't prevent the attacts usually (eg. XSS)
